The Codeforces API may be requested at most 1 time per two seconds. If the users of the bot exceed this limit, the bot will receive a 429 Too Many Requests response. To prevent this, we need to implement a rate limiting mechanism to control the number of requests made to the API.
Timing Tracking: Implement a system to track the timing of each API request made by the bot.
Rate Limiting Logic: Develop logic to enforce a minimum delay of two seconds between consecutive API requests.
Throttling Mechanism: Implement a queue to hold API requests when the rate limit is reached, processing them in a controlled manner.
Error Handling: Handle Too Many Requests responses by retrying the request after an appropriate delay.
